His body does look small for a 2.5. If he is only 1.5 holy smoke that is some mass. That's a lot of mass if he is 2.5. I love the ridge running up the inside of his beams. Either way, I'm guessing you are letting him get a year older. He is going to blow up in the next few years.
Nice Looking Bucks Gary! With the right genes,soil,water,and food sources its not hard to believe that's a 1.5 year old to me. We grow big deer here no doubt. In my area that buck is a goner and that's the problem. May Mr Mass grace your presence this season!!!:D GOOD LUCK !!!!
damn germ, that's thing is gonna be a monster in a couple seasons... i'd do what ever i had to do to keep him on your property...
